The room was perfect - it was large, had a jacuzzi bathtub which was great after a long day of siteseeing! And the terrace had a fabulous view of Florence.

The breakfast was just ok. I would have preferred some choices of hot breakfast.

La ubicación

Hay habitaciones de luxe con acceso sin ascensor y te informan en el propio hotel. Por este motivo, tuvimos que cambiar tres veces de habitación y nos cobraron lo mismo por una de menor categoría.

Il bagno si è allagato facendo la doccia, anche l'intervento su nostra richiesta non è stato tempestivo. La camera non vale il prezzo corrisposto.

Lobbyen, receptionen og fællesarealerne var fantastisk smukke. Og beliggenheden 5 minutteres gang fra alle de store gågader, domkirken og restauranter var helt i top. Personalet var yderst søde og hjælpsomme.

Morgenmadsbuffeten var ok, men lidt kedelig, og kaffen decideret dårlig. Værelset var fint stort, men noget mere spartansk, end jeg havde forventet af et "double superior room" på et 4-stjernet hotel. Men der manglede ikke noget.

Bra läge nära stationen och centralt men ändå lugnt och tyst.

Heltäckningsmattor - usch!!! Behöver fräschas upp! Känns lite gammalt och stort o opersonligt med döda allmänna ytor.

Die gute Athosphäre und das traditionelle Ambiente.

Ich bin der Meinung,dass gelegentlich eine "Auffrischung" der Möbel und Einrichtungen nötig ist.
